BP and Esso were closing stations due to lack of drivers / supply before the panic buying started. Please do continue to swallow and regurgitate the Tory talking points though.
‘The shortage of lorry and HGV drivers however, King conceded, was an ongoing issue. “The market is stretched, so I think that is a broader issue that is affecting the supply chain, not just the petrol and diesel, but retail as well.”
King said the government had freed up a number of driving tests for HGV drivers in training but said he did not know any details of further action it may plan to take.’
You have a problem discussing things dispassionately don’t you, RR. The AA guy was saying yes, driver shortages caused a localised problem. But panic buying is what is causing shortages everywhere. Of course, as usual, you know best. *eye roll*
I'm just taking the piss out of you goose for being a fawning Tory fangirl at times. You are quite sensible on non political topics fwiw.
Please read me as always taking the piss from now on and you won't need to feign superiority by using phrases like "You have a problem discussing things dispassionately don’t you, RR." It makes you seem like a tosser. Which you are. We all are. Maybe you haven't noticed?
Well I for one can’t possibly see why anybody would be p1ssed off at all this. The very things they have predicted for years but were screamed at/threatened/called enemies of the people/traitors for pointing out.
and lo it came to pass. And it was nothing to do with brexit.
You can be sure that each one of Brexit shitstorjsxover the coming years - including shortages and relative economic decline will have nothing to do with Brexit - human nature makes it psychologically difficult to admit one is wrong on a big subject like this

The AA reckon the shortages are because of panic buying rather than anything else. It’s toilet rolls all over again.

Yes exactly. They are relaxing immigration rules for hgv drivers because people are panic buying. It's obvious when you think about it.

I am regurgitating what the AA said, from a Guardian story.
They said the BP closures due to drivers/supply were a very localised issue.

It's like the Tories send out a mailshot to their gullible fanboys and fangirls.
The shortages of drivers is brexit related. Are you really denying this even as the tozzas talk about relaxing immigration rules?
The other one has bells on. Give it a tug.

What’s Brexit got to do with the Tories?
Labour (and in particular Corbyn) was pro Brexit too.

Who promised a referendum? Remind me?
Corbyn is thick so may well have been a brexiter. Let's not distract - tory brexit is a tory policy and tory initiative.
If you vote, think or fûck tory, you're a tory brexling. They expelled anyone remotely sensible.

Furthermore, this brexit is Boris Johnson’s deal. Outside the SM and CU.
